As we are approaching resurrection Sunday, I want to examine an interesting aspect of Jesus - He was probably really short.
Most people envision Jesus as tall, very attractive, and commanding, based on Western standards. However, this was far from the case. The average height of a Jewish man in biblical times was about 5'4". Therefore, Jesus was most likely a short dude by our standards with some researchers putting his height at 5'2".
I know that this topic seems to come out of left field, but the Holy Spirit desires us to understand this fact about Jesus, because it will greatly increase our confidence in achieving the calling God has given us. In today's message, you will discover that success from God is not based on human characteristics, perceptions or birth privilege, but based on the anointing.
